Agree 100%. Does some of this apply to your GTA5 review? I always found it weird that the text bashed the game for off-putting misogyny yet it got an 8. I know people thought that was scandalously low but to me the text read as a 5.

My feeling is that while GTA5 was more egregious than most, there was significant sexism in SO many games and if I seriously factored it into review scores, a great many games would have gotten significantly lower scores, so I couldn't suddenly factor it heavily into GTA5's score

Hmm interesting - thanks for the reply. Love the piece, but I think it will mostly fall on deaf ears.
